Missoni Styles Up a Knitwear Storm for Fall 2009
>> Margherita Missoni was dangled above Venice in Missoni wings and dress to kick off the annual carnival last week, but this afternoon, she was right outside her mother's show in Milan, smoking while everyone waited to get inside. The collection that debuted is one of the first this season that has really seemed to invigorate everyone about next season — online and front row viewers alike seem to be in raptures. The styling, impeccable — layers and layers of scarves wrapped heads loosely, cardigans fitted under jackets and over leggings — knitwear everywhere, as the brand's heritage dictates. Even in a palette of neutrals with the occasional staccato of blue, the looks were gripping, seamless — and no doubt, we'll be a seeing a lot more of them in the months to come.

FedEx Expands SenseAware(SM) Availability To International Markets; Adds New Capabilities To Provide Customers With Greater Flexibility And Reach. (Photo: Business Wire)
FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) today announced an expansion and enhancement of its SenseAware SM service, providing customers with broader international availability and the ability to use the service with carriers outside the FedEx network. The release of the next generation of the SenseAware device, SenseAware 2000, offers customers more accurate near real-time location information, improved cellular connectivity and longer battery life.

These enhancements give the service greater reach and provide customers richer, more customizable information for monitoring critical and high value shipments and inventory.
"SenseAware is all about information, and the innovative service increases visibility, allowing customers to make better and more timely decisions," said Carl Asmus, vice president of market development for FedEx. "Our customers now have more actionable intelligence at their fingertips to make informed decisions and identify opportunities to improve their global supply chain, a tremendous value for any business."
SenseAware service expands to international markets
Initially available for shipments only in the U.S., SenseAware can now help customers monitor shipments and inventory in Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and Singapore. SenseAware is also targeting further international expansion. "SenseAware provides unmatched visibility and insight into global shipments, which is especially important in this increasingly complex global business environment," Asmus said. "Our international expansion program is allowing us to better serve our customers by providing access to markets where our customers have a need to monitor their supply chain." SenseAware is now carrier neutral The SenseAware service is now available on a growing list of air and ground transportation carriers, delivering more transportation options to customers in order to better fit their specific needs and still benefit from the peace of mind and quality assurance provided by SenseAware. Beyond the FedEx network, the service is now available on the following carriers:- Delta Air Lines (including Delta Connection Carriers)
- Southwest Airlines
- United Airlines mainline jets
- Third party ground carriers (when used consistently with their rules and regulations)
- Private fleets
- SenseAware 2000: The new device offers customers improved benefits over the original SenseAware 1000 device first offered in November 2009. These include increased battery life, improved GPS technology, and better cellular connectivity.
- Accessories: SenseAware 2000 device is designed to support a temperature probe which has a temperature measurement range of -80°C to 60°C (-112°F to 140°F).
- Route Geo-fences: Customers can now create a geo-fence along the actual route a shipment should follow and set up alerts to notify the customer if the shipment deviates from this pre-established route. This feature is available on ground shipments.
- Environmental Data Specification: When setting up a journey or creating a template, customers can now choose which environmental data, such as temperature, humidity or barometric pressure, is collected. This ensures that the device only collects data for specific environments requested, thus streamlining the amount of information the customer receives.
- Nonevent Geo-fence Triggers: Triggers can be set up to alert or notify customers when geo-fence events do not occur as expected by a specified time. This helps customers determine if a package has gotten off pace or off track.
- Current location of the shipments (when traveling on the ground)
- Accurate temperature, relative humidity, and barometric pressure readings
- Alerts or notifications when a shipment's contents have been exposed to light

12.3 Primary Activities
Security Measures
Under state law, the Division of Insurance must establish and implement security mechanisms to ensure confidentiality and data integrity for any information that identifies an individual. After numerous incidents of data breaches reported in the news, the Division raised its security standard by augmenting its overall security strategy with an additional layer of security called data encryption. Today, the Division uses powerful encryption and strong access control to prevent unauthorized data access on all laptops. With this extra layer of security, the IT Group meets its commitment to ensuring full compliance with privacy regulations and the protection of the Division's brand image and reputation. In addition, this added security demonstrates compliance with internal and regulatory privacy requirements to auditors, senior management, and other stakeholders.
Consumer Website Tools
In order to further the Division's mission of helping consumers make informed insurance decisions, the IT Group and several other departments embarked on a strategic initiative aimed at alleviating the challenge faced by consumers in the process of finding local agents selling the line of insurance suited to their particular need. The completion of the AgentFinder interactive tool on the external website streamlines this process by allowing consumers to easily find agents selling the various lines of insurance in a specific geographic area with a few clicks of the mouse. Consumers may perform an advanced search using several criteria in order to narrow the search by company, geographic area, or lines of insurance. In addition, AgentFinder and the auto insurance premium comparison website are linked, allowing users to conveniently transition from sample premium searches to agent searches Insurance Producers benefit from AgentFinder because they can upload and present an array of demographic and business information on a public search tool used by potential insurance customers.
Software Deployment
The Division is committed to adopting and deploying cutting-edge technology to streamline business processes, maximize efficiencies, improve productivity and consolidate its strategic advantage. To that end, the IT Group successfully completed the enterprise-wide upgrade of its CLARIS, OLLIE, OPRA & ARE SQL databases from Microsoft SQL 2000 to Microsoft SQL 2005. The immediate benefit of these upgrades includes enhancement features that improve database security and manageability; performance optimization of our database servers; and increased developer productivity. The performance monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities of the upgraded software, as well as the ease of data backup and recovery in the event of a disaster, represents a significant boost in protection for the agency. Prompted by the success of the SQL upgrade, the IT Group launched another enterprise-wide upgrade of the new and improved Windows Vista Business operating system on all desktop computers and laptops. In addition, all Microsoft office application suites installed on all Division desktop computers and laptops were upgraded to Office 2007 Professional. This successful deployment provided improvements in the searching and use of data; enabled mobile workers to stay connected and productive in and out of office; improved desktop security; and, facilitated easier desktop management.

MISSOULA — Missoula County commissioners are calling on County Attorney Fred Van Valkenburg to deal with what one called "a nightmare in public trust" in his battle with the U.S. Department of Justice.
Commission chair Jean Curtiss said she understands Van Valkenburg's frustration with the DOJ over whether it has authority to investigate the county attorney's office for its handling of sexual assault reports.
The Justice Department released a scathing report on Feb. 14 in which it decried a 17-percent prosecution rate of sexual assault cases and alleged a number of instances in which deputy county attorneys in Van Valkenburg's office mishandled reports.
Van Valkenburg, who was on vacation when the report came through, responded with strong rebuttals and he reiterated those Wednesday in his first weekly meeting with commissioners since he returned to work.
"My concern," Curtiss said, "is that this community has lost faith in your office, partly because of your posture and partly because of the DOJ report. I would encourage you to take time to review all those allegations and work with the (Montana) Attorney General's Office to look for ways to improve it."
Van Valkenburg told commissioners the DOJ report was filled with "half-truths, mistruths, and outright lies."
"There's no one in our office who operates in the way the DOJ describes our office as operating. We don't work that way," he said.
Curtiss and Commissioner Michele Landquist urged Van Valkenburg to make his campaign against the DOJ secondary to addressing the rights of victims.
The DOJ report cited unnamed deputy county attorneys who mishandled the questioning of victims, and a ratio of reports to prosecutions of just 17 percent in a recent two-year period.
Wherever the truth lies, those aren't encouraging words for women in Missoula, Curtiss said.
"What matters to me is that victims feel safe to come forward and assure their case will not be a low priority because it's difficult to prosecute. These are emotionally charged crimes, so I'm anxious to hear what you plan to do to build the public trust back up."
'Retaliatory' release
Van Valkenburg filed suit in U.S. District Court on Feb. 11. With the commissioners' financial support, he's challenging the federal department's right to investigate his office.
He said the timing of the DOJ's release was "clearly retaliatory and absolutely unfair."
The Justice Department has "put out a lot of bad information to the public," he said.
"We're simply at the mercy of the media, and I can tell you from experience, they are much more interested in having somebody say you did something wrong than you saying you did something right," Van Valkenburg said. "And that's just the way it is. That's life. Life's not fair."
Curtiss said an accountability audit this spring in which the county attorney's office will take part along with city and university police departments should help define what improvements can be made in the handling of sexual assault cases.
"I know some things have already been done to improve communication and that kind of thing, but there'll be some new things there we'll learn about how we can support victims better in our system, and that is our priority and focus. You get to do the legal stuff," she said.
She wondered if the system couldn't improve with earlier intervention of crime victim advocates and a better place to question victims, rather than "interrogation" rooms at the police and sheriff's departments.
Van Valkenburg was accompanied to the late-morning meeting at the county administrative building by Deputy County Attorney Jennifer Clark.
She told commissioners the office has been trying to determine who the deputy county attorneys were who were cited in the DOJ report, including one who allegedly told a mother of a reported victim that "boys will be boys" and another who quoted Bible verses to a victim in a manner that the woman felt discouraged from pressing charges.
"I think one of our frustrations is the confidential nature of these cases that we can't defend ourselves and explain what happened in private conversation," Clark said. "We are going through the letter and trying to identify where this came from and we don't have much information to go on to do that."
Word came down later Wednesday that the Department of Justice has committed to sharing information from its investigation into the Missoula County Attorney's Office with Montana Attorney General Tim Fox.
That won't change Van Valkenburg's tactics in pursuit of a declaratory judgment against the DOJ, he said. The Department has 60 days from the Feb. 11 filing to respond. Commissioners dedicated $50,000 from county coffers to pay an independent attorney from Missoula to pursue the case.
Meanwhile, Van Valkenburg blasted the findings of the DOJ report.
"It's so unfair it's unbelievable. Why anybody would believe it is beyond me, except that they're predisposed to believe it," he said.
He was described by one commissioner as "a sitting duck" when the allegations came down.
"A sitting duck with a gun in my hand," Van Valkenburg amended with a smile.

wake up masher sounds like you've drinking a bit too much of that constitutional kool-aid all "democracies" have been screwing over their citizens from day 1. this just didn't happen under Obama's watch and blaming him is weak cop out.
here is a good example that Chomsky uses at http://www.salon.com/2013/12/2...
"So, for example, if you go back a century ago, right after the U.S. invasion of the Philippines — a brutal invasion that killed a couple hundred thousand people — there was a problem for the U.S. of pacification afterwards. What do you do to control the population to prevent another nationalist uprising? There's a very good study of this by Alfred McCoy, a Philippines scholar at University of Wisconsin, and what he shows is that the U.S. used the most sophisticated technology of the day to develop a massive system of survelliance, control, disruption to undermine any potential opposition and to impose very tight controls on the population which lasted for a long time and in many ways the Philippines is still suffering from this. But he also points out the technology was immediately transferred home. Woodrow Wilson's administration used it in their "Red Scare" a couple years later. The British used it, too."
pick any period in history and these power hungry cunts have always been trying to stay in power no matter what. I haven't got any answers just know that what we call democracy is not working because it always allows the people in power to get away with shit.

When Katie Olsen started swimming at age 6, the one event she could not do was the breaststroke.
"I couldn't figure out how to do the kick," Olsen said. "I would always get so frustrated by it. And my coach would get mad."
Slideshow: 2009 All-Tribune: Fall Sports
It's safe to say she's straightened that out.
The Phoenix Desert Vista junior set a state record in the 100-meter breaststroke with a time of 1:00.68 and added another state title in the 50-meter freestyle, garnering the Tribune's Girls Swimmer of the Year Award.
With the banning of high-tech swimsuits before the season, few state records fell, but Olsen came in comfortably under the mark of 1:01.57 set by Tucson Sahuaro's Caitlin Leverenz in 2006.
Olsen was happy with the state record, but she wasn't completely content with her time.
"I was kind of like, 'Aww, I didn't get it,'" said Olsen of her reaction. "I pictured seeing 59 seconds."
Her 50-meter freestyle title was also impressive. She was planning on swimming the 200-meter individual medley at state but switched to the 50-meter freestyle with only a month before the meet.
"My 200 IM had not been so red hot, so I figured maybe I'll go for the 50 this time," Olsen said.
She finished in 23.45 seconds, .14 seconds ahead of Gilbert's Kelli Benjamin, to secure the crown.
Olsen has one more year of high school swimming yet, and breaking into double digits in the breaststroke will be the main goal next season.
As long as her kick remains steady, she'll have a good chance.
"I really want to go under a minute," she said.

John Prine . . .
When I was a child my family would travel,
Down to Western Kentucky where my parents were born.
And there's a backwards old town that's often remembered,
So many times that my memories are worn.
And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County?
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay,
Well, I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking,
Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away.
That isn't all that's been hauled away. The Citizen's United train has hauled democracy away, the NSA train has hauled the Bill of Rights away, the Free Trade train has hauled millions of jobs away.
The truth is being hauled away.
The rule of law is being hauled away.
Reality itself is being hauled away.
Yeah. There's heavy traffic on the rails. And blood on the tracks. Everywhere.
Robert Reich, Why There's No Outcry . . .
People ask me all the time why we don't have a revolution in America, or at least a major wave of reform similar to that of the Progressive Era or the New Deal or the Great Society. Middle incomes are sinking, the ranks of the poor are swelling, almost all the economic gains are going to the top, and big money is corrupting our democracy. So why isn't there more of a ruckus?
The answer is complex, but three reasons stand out.First, the working class is paralyzed with fear it will lose the jobs and wages it already has.
Second, students don't dare rock the boat. They're laden with debt.
Third and finally, the American public has become so cynical about government that many no longer think reform is possible.
So many outrages, so many betrayals, so many times . . .
The earth has been ravaged and it's still being ravaged . . .
The coal company came with the world's largest shovel,
And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land.
Well they dug for their coal 'til the land was forsaken,
Then they wrote it all down as the progress of man.
Progress like off-shore drilling, progress like pipeline "spills" and fracking, progress like lethal chemical plants and Fukushima, progress like gunfire in our schools and resurgent racism, while global warming escalates and inequality goes off the charts and too-big-to-fail banks just keep getting bigger. Capitalism is functioning so well that 85 class warfare criminals have more wealth than half the population of the world.
And they're writing it all down as the progress of man.
Well we can write too.
Howard Zinn . . .
Civil disobedience is not our problem. Civil obedience is our problem. Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of leaders…and millions have been killed because of this obedience…Our problem is that people are obedient allover the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, while the grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem.
Chris Hedges . . .
A culture that does not grasp the vital interplay between morality and power, which mistakes management techniques for wisdom, and fails to understand that the measure of a civilization is its compassion, not its speed or ability to consume, condemns itself to death.
Martin Luther King Jr. . .
The time comes when silence is betrayal. That time has come for us today.
The winds are blowing, the skies are turning grey. Democracy's sun is setting, but it will rise another day.
Remember fallen friends. Carry on for them. Stay strong, speak truth to power, keep the faith . . .

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could supply me with general cost factors of running 200amp panel to a farm. One way would be overhead (poles and wiring), the other way would be underground, for a run of .25 miles. I need some general way of telling me what each would cost out at. |

This is NOT something you are going to get accurate answers on. This is something you need to have quoted on site. 1300' is a LONG way. Far too long for secondary (120/240) voltage. So it is most likely that your utility is going to have to get involved in a much greater capacity. |
Before 'Deregulation', if the utility calculated, (based upon your anticipated connected load), that they could recuperate their investment in 5 years, then they would build the line for free. Of course if you didn't generate that anticipated revenue for them, then you would have to pay a surcharge each month, "FOREVER",or until additional customers come on line, either beyond you, or along the line that was built for you. This would be spelled out ahead of time and you had to sign on the dotted line. Today, you pay the full shot no matter what, because you don't necessarily have to buy the power from them, even though you still have to pay 'Delivery Charges'. If you have the means to dig a trench that is deep enough so that the primary wire is 30 inches below final grade, then underground is cheaper. The utility will still charge you to do the connections on each end and they will supply the transformer on 'your' pad. But remember, that line will be owned by you and if something goes wrong with it, the utility will disconnect it and YOU are responsible for repairs. |

Hi everyone,
aside from our Diet Pals support thread, I thought there is enough interest to go over the basics again. I don't have a lot of time today, family funeral - but I would like to start this thread and build on it - hopefully with your help. First, I would like to explain the point system.
Could someone post the link again for a points online calculator. Looking to help those who can't access WW - if you list the foods you like to eat daily, I will try to respond with their points values. I also want to do portion sizes. What products are you enjoying? Maybe product reviews. Diaries - do they help you? Let's start with the basics so we can help ourselves and each other. I find posting a lot and writing things down here helps me a great deal. Keeps me focussed. I also want to stress that we are all individuals, we are human. We fall down, we get back up again. We will have good days and bad - no matter what - we are here for each other. If you have a bad day and think you have blown things, you have only truly blown if it you walk away and quit. You can recover from your down moments by continuing to put one foot in front of the other. You can do these. Join us. I have to go right now, but I will check in later tonight and start with the basics. Cheers,
Follow-Up Postings:
Good Morning McPeg. I have put a points calculator, plus some other WW links on a webpage. WW points calculator If anyone has a good WW site to add to this page, just let me know. I think it will be convenient to have all our WW links on 1 page. Sorry to hear about the death in the family, McPeg. I guess it is your gran, who has been in the hospital? My condolences. It is so true that we should never give up. That is when we truly let ourselves down. I was worried because with a 3 day weekend, I ate too much of the wrong things. But I got right back with the program and today was my weigh-in.....I lost 2 pounds this week! Yeah!!! Exercise is also important. I haven't been very good at regular exercise. We Texans are so used to warm weather. It has to be 70ş before I go walking. LOL But I am trying to get exercise inside. I just need to be more regular with it. |
- Posted by DeeMarie5500 (My Page) on Wed, Feb 18, 04 at 11:13
McPeg, I offer my sympathies for your loss, also. MaryAnn, you mentioned that you ate too much of the "wrong things". Can you explain a bit for me? I was led to believe that nothing was "wrong", as long as they fit into the amount of points you are alloted for the day. Of course, I would not limit myself to one ice-cream soda each day, every day, but if I want some pasta with a rich sauce for dinner, I eat lighter at breakfast and lunch that day. Is that OK? Guess I'll bring it up at today's meeting. Thanks |
By "wrong" things I meant, I just ate what I wanted without worrying about the points, etc. I would hate to think how many points I ate each day over the weekend! D, you are right about being able to eat anything with Weight Watchers as long as you don't go over your points. That's why it works for me. I'm not good at denying myself foods. |
McPeg, I also offer my sympathies for your loss. I really appreciate all your help. I am just starting out today, it is 4:00 pm and I have 3 points left. Pathetic aren't I??? I will try to do better tomorrow. I am allowed 22 points. Is there an allowance for 1 hour of aerobics? Thanks so much. Jen |
Jen, McPeg listed this trade-off on another thread: Brisk Walking (15 minute mile) - 15 minutes = 1.5 points burned Any 80's music fans? Disco dancing - 15 minutes = 1.5 points Pilates - 15 minutes = 1.0 point I better get my eyes examined...I looked at the list quickly and I THOUGHT IT READ BIRDWATCHING (got briefly excited...more my speed)... Billiards - 15 minutes = 0.5 point (I gotta quarter - who wants to play??? SHould warn you...I suck at it!) Could not find situps but Gymnastics (also uses a lot of muscles) burns 5 minutes (FIVE) - 0.5 points. and my favourite...of course.... Scottish dancing - 10 minutes (if I can stop laughing) over 2 crossed kitchen knives..... = 1.5 points Eat lots of carrots! LOL That's what I do when I'm close to over doing the points. |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Fri, Feb 20, 04 at 7:44
What points should you allow yourself for your weight? under 10st 18 points As you lose weight, you may need to adjust your daily point allowance. |

McPeg, I think you're using stones instead of pounds! Jen is from Indiania, USA! |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Fri, Feb 20, 04 at 11:53
As Homer Simpson says - Doooooooh! under 140 lbs - 18 points ((**Grin**)) McPeg |
LOL!!! I was trying to figure out what st was! I have one of the new books from the states and ours is a little different from McPegs. under 150 lbs. - 20 points |
OK, I get 22 points. This is a lot harder than I thought, but I am trying. We are going away for the weekend so I am going to lay off and then hit it hard Sunday. You have my word. Thanks so much for your help. Jen |
Jen, it's always harder to eat the right foods when you are away from home. But if you mess up, just get right back with the program when you get home! I've watched my weight for many years and thought I knew so much about eating the right foods. But I have learned so much from counting points with WW. Be sure to look for foods with a low fat content and high dietary fiber. |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Sat, Feb 21, 04 at 11:18
I think the US site is more up to date but the idea and principals/support is always here. Lets talk about portion sizes today...that is the hardest for myself. I use the palm of my hand for many foods and its very portable ***Grin*** 1.5 pt 5.5 pt steak/ 2.5 pt skinless chicken breast (same size as a cassette) 3 pt uncooked rice (two handfuls or 60 g) 2.5 pts medium jacket potato (about the size of a computer mouse) 1 pt mashed potatoe (1 ice cream scoop) May I suggest to make your life simple by marking your packages and cans of foods with a marker and put the points, if you can by serving. I have made myself a list of favorite foods and their point values. I keep it handy. Hope everyone will drop a note on some basic ideas that you use to help you keep on track. Cheers, |
This is my first time posting here - I joined WW 2 1/2 weeks ago and have lost 8 lbs. I started at 145.5 lbs. and am 5 ft. 5 inches tall. I eat all of my 20 pts. each day, plus my APs (I do 30 minutes of exercise every day). I usually use about 5 of my flex points each week. I am loving this program because it really is teaching me how to eat. I realize now that I was eating out of boredom, and snacking way too much. I, too, write the amount of pts. on each food package in my home, so that I know right away how much I am eating. I also keep lots of low point foods around. Sheryl |
Sheryl, I started out at 149 lbs. and I'm 5'4'' tall. I've lost 15˝ lbs in 22 weeks. I count points during the week, but the weekends that Jammer is home I usually don't keep count. We go out to eat alot and sometimes go out for drinks. But when Monday rolls around, I'm back to counting! I'm happy this way because I'm eating very healthy most of the time, and when I step on the scales each week the number is usually down. Even if it's just ˝ lb down I'm happy! I buy the usual snacks for my kids, who are tall and slim, but when tempted I look at the fat content in them, and I put them back on the shelf!!! |
- Posted by DeeMarie5500 (My Page) on Mon, Feb 23, 04 at 16:17
I'm not measuring everything, but I did the first week (2 weeks ago!) so that I could eyeball what it looks like on the plate. I tend to go a bit less so that I'm within points. So far, I've picked some of my favorite foods and memorized how much I can eat. I've also decided to purchase foods that are already measured---for example, 8 oz package of low-fat cheese, with only 8 slices! duh!!! I purchased the 1/2 cup Glad plastic containers. I fill 2 of them for a 1 point serving of grapes, and use as a snack in the morning and snack in the afternoon if I'm hungry. Been a great help when making lunch to bring into the office. |
How many points is in birthday cake?? Happy Birthday McPeg!!!! |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Tue, Feb 24, 04 at 6:22
Too many if ya saw what I ate yesterday! Today I am a REAL GOOD GIRL! Many thanks, McPeg |
I had to go out of town yesterday after work. So I picked up fried chicken and jalapeno bombers on the way home. But I was good....I looked online to check out Church's Chicken and I only ate one thigh and 1 bomber. Then I journaled the points. I went over 1 point for the day, but that's because I just had to have something sweet before going to bed. I ate 1 points worth of mini jellybeans. I did feel so bloated before bed. I'm thinking it was from the fried chicken? My stomach is back to normal this morning. |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Tue, Feb 24, 04 at 10:57
MaryAnn - you have to not deprive yourself and you did very well. What is a bomber? McPeg |
- Posted by DeeMarie5500 (My Page) on Wed, Feb 25, 04 at 12:23
Hello everyone! Just left my WW meeting, and I am down another 1 1/2 pounds--for a total of 8 pounds since February 4. YIPPEE It's great to see the scale move down instead of up. It's still a long, long, road to go, but I'm going to do it this time, and I'm going to keep it off! |
Congratulations DeeMarie!! Just let the WW choices become a way of life, and know you are doing something great for yourself! I weighed-in today for a 1 lb. loss this week. 3 more lbs. and I'll be in the range I have been shooting for. But I will still weigh weekly and check here daily to chat with everyone. And I'll definitely make smart choices for what I stuff into my mouth!! And if my weight starts going up, then I'll be journaling points again. |
MaryAnn, that is great that you can count points during the week but relax during the weekend. Eventually that's what I want to do. It's so hard counting points on the weekend. Dee Marie, you started about the time I did and are at similar losses. It feels good, doesn't it? Sheryl |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Thu, Feb 26, 04 at 13:59
Hello Sherly, DeeMarie and MaryAnn! I started after xmas - I think about the same time as MaryAnn - I was 157 and as of today 143. I have found with WW it is overall slow and steady after awhile. I just had THREE WEEKS of plateau - part unstable routine at home with family upset (now settling down again) and part EXACTLY where I plateaued and QUIT the last two years...this time I was so pissed off at myself for quitting at this point I hung in there and really journalled, measured and kept the faith during the last couple of weeks. Things are now moving again. I concentrated on being happy with myself for eating better, enjoying my food more and PAYING MORE ATTENTION TO MYSELF. How many times do you shove food in your mouth while running around to look after everyone else???? We all deserve some special time for ourselves. I am so happy to be here with everyone and focussed this time for the right reasons. I have enjoyed a number of folk here because we have been keeping each other going. DeeMarie and Sheryl...its great you are both in a similar plan/weight track. Might be nice to see how you are both getting on and compare your notes. There are lots of good threads going on...I usually yak a lot at the Diet Pals and anyone and everyone is more than welcome to pop round and join us anytime. I love meeting new friends. Glad to say hello and wish you success. If you are having a bad moment or feel BLECH - talk to us. We are all going through similar feelings and situations. LOL to all, |
Hi everyone! Actually, McPeg I have been on the program for 23 weeks now. I did fine during the holidays even though I quit counting points. I just tried to make good choices. But...after Christmas I started eating way too much and gained several pounds back. I started counting points again and got back on the wagon. So now I am at 16˝ lbs. lost, which isn't a lot for 23 weeks, but I'm very happy with it!!! It really helps to have all of you to talk to and to hear your experiences, struggles and triumphs! I'm wishing success for everyone! |
If U want to know the exact point use this point counter. |
Here is a link that might be useful: point counter with fractions
Good Morning, Ok, nobody laugh at my lunch menu but I am trying to figure the points and I am not sure if this is right???? 1 can of Taco Bell Fat free Refried beans. Sevings 3.5 Am I correct in assuming this is 4 points or is there something more to eating more than one serving? I just need to clarify this in my mind. I am on a refried bean kick. Thanks so much. Jen |
- Posted by DeeMarie5500 (My Page) on Wed, Mar 3, 04 at 14:38
Jen, according to my Pointsfinder slide, the entire can is 6 points!! Hope Erica is feeling better. :-) Good luck! |
Thanks DeeMarie, that will make a big difference on supper tonite. CONGRATS on your weight loss. Keep up the good work. Jen |
With the new WW plan U can only count 4 grams of fiber no matter how many it has. I also have wondered how it worked if U eat more than 1 serving of something. To be exact it is 6.7 points. |
Here is a link that might be useful: point calculator
Oh my gosh - someone else loves those beans too! I bought 2 cans of them this week. I eat mine with salsa. Kathy_PA |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Sun, Mar 7, 04 at 12:03
BEans? where? Move over I'll bring some salsa and help ya if it's too much! McPeg |
Hey Everyone, Ok, I have another question. If a have a baby spinach salad with spinach, carrots, broccoli, and mushrooms, How do I figure up the points since each one has 0. I am assuming that it's not going to be a 0 point salad right? I am using each serving size of veges. Thanks. Jen |
- Posted by quiltingbunny (My Page) on Thu, Mar 25, 04 at 14:12
Hi Jen, I think in this case - it is a zero point salad - no fat whatsoever and the only concern I would have would be the carrots but trust me - even it if did make 1 point - I would rather eat the salad. Are you having dressing? Hope this helps. Glad to read your post! Cheers, McPeg |
Thanks McPeg. I counted out 10 baby carrots to make sure that I didn't go over on that one. I had fat free italian dressing. I just wondered if I went over with like 3 cups of spinach if that would matter? The rest, I don't think I went over the serving sizes. But who knows with veges. Thanks again. Jen |
- Posted by DeeMarie5500 (My Page) on Fri, Mar 26, 04 at 12:07
Jen, I'm told by my WW leader that it's still "0". Someone asked if they could possibly go overboard on zero point foods, and she said "yes, if you aren't losing or are gaining, we would have to take at a look at your diary". So I guess the answer is to count as zero unless it affects your weight. |
Mom told me - she goes to the meetings - that some foods have points if eaten in huge portions. One example is ff Cool Whip. A few spoonfuls have no points but if you eat the whole thing there are points. I think you would need to eat a lot of carrots to put on weight though. Kathy |

Good News Translation (GNT) | New International Version (NIV) |
20 Even the wild animals will honor me; jackals and ostriches will praise me when I make rivers flow in the desert to give water to my chosen people. | 20 The wild animals honor me, the jackals and the owls, because I provide water in the desert and streams in the wasteland, to give drink to my people, my chosen, |
21 They are the people I made for myself, and they will sing my praises!" | 21 the people I formed for myself that they may proclaim my praise. |
22 The Lord says, "But you were tired of me, Israel; you did not worship me. | 22 "Yet you have not called upon me, O Jacob, you have not wearied yourselves for me, O Israel. |
23 You did not bring me your burnt offerings of sheep; you did not honor me with your sacrifices. I did not burden you by demanding offerings or wear you out by asking for incense. | 23 You have not brought me sheep for burnt offerings, nor honored me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with grain offerings nor wearied you with demands for incense. |
24 You didn't buy incense for me or satisfy me with the fat of your animals. Instead you burdened me with your sins; you wore me out with the wrongs you have committed. | 24 You have not bought any fragrant calamus for me, or lavished on me the fat of your sacrifices. But you have burdened me with your sins and wearied me with your offenses. |
25 And yet, I am the God who forgives your sins, and I do this because of who I am. I will not hold your sins against you. | 25 "I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more. |
26 "Let us go to court; bring your accusation! Present your case to prove you are in the right! | 26 Review the past for me, let us argue the matter together; state the case for your innocence. |
27 Your earliest ancestor sinned; your leaders sinned against me, | 27 Your first father sinned; your spokesmen rebelled against me. |
28 and your rulers profaned my sanctuary. So I brought destruction on Israel; I let my own people be insulted." | 28 So I will disgrace the dignitaries of your temple, and I will consign Jacob to destruction and Israel to scorn. |

World's Most Beautiful Museums
Musée d'Orsay: Paris
Inaugurated as a train station for the 1900 World's Fair, this elegant building on the Left Bank of the Seine officially became a museum in 1986. Luckily, the original architectural ornamentation and stately arches of the Beaux-Arts-style station remain. And inside, the arched glass barrel ceiling lets plenty of natural light flood the sculptures in the long main hall. Stop at the café to see the Seine through the huge metal clock, a legacy of the museum's railroad roots.

Feb. 15 (Bloomberg) -- The European Union and the U.S. agreed to recognize each other's organic certification, meaning certified organic products can be sold as such in either region, the European Commission said.
The organic-product market in the U.S. and the EU is estimated to be worth about 40 billion euros a year, the commission wrote in an e-mailed statement today.
"This partnership between the two largest organic producers in the world will establish a strong foundation from which to promote organic agriculture," the commission wrote.
EU Agriculture Commissioner Dacian Ciolos, U.S. Deputy Agriculture Secretary Kathleen Merrigan and U.S. Trade Representative Chief Agricultural Negotiator Isi Siddiqui signed the partnership agreement today at an organics trade show in Nuremberg, Germany, according to the statement.

This year's calving season is running later than usual. Most of the time, all our babies have arrived before the leaves start to turn. We bred back more heifers this year though, which makes for a less predictable calving schedule as the young mothers do not re-impregnate as readily after calving.
There are several things we could do to make this less of an issue. We could more carefully insert and remove the bull so that we would have a more specific idea of when our cows conceive. We could also remove the calves sooner from their mothers. With the market so far off productive this year though, we have actually been just as happy not to have the females breed back, so thus far we have kept our herd all together in one pasture- bull, cows, yearling calves, and now new babies.
This has given us the chance to see what natural herd behavior looks like. We find our big herd sire- Time Bandit runs a tight ship. While there is plenty of horsing around and rough-housing, there is no fighting. And we have two two year old bulls in that pasture also. They have grown up there and for the brief time we seperated them, these two were unhappy and started fence jumping to get back into the main pasture.
Everyone defers to Big Daddy and Africa, his herd queen. I have been amazed at how much Time Bandit has to do with the calves. They usually stay fairly close to him- frequently laying up on him, he grooms them regularly, and at the sign of any threat, the youngsters all flock to him. At this point he has more to do with them than their mothers do.
If we pen the calves to work them, Bandit paces about outside the arena, bellowing and fussing until we give him his kids back. He checks each one over to make sure it is unhurt. This degree of paternal care has surprised me. So much of our animal handing is disruptive to the normal behavior for the species concerned.
Watching this bull-calf interaction has made me contemplate other aspects of our animal handling to look for ways we unnecessarily disrupt natural relationships. Our animals are happiest and easiest to work when we follow natural herd dynamics as much as possible. So this has become the 4B way.

Hi all, my husband and I are looking to redo our kitchen including new appliances. There is a great deal on Kenmore appliances at Sears right now but I am curious to know how that brand is perceived. It wasn't really on my radar, I was going to look into purchasing like Maytag or Whirlpool appliances. We want to sell our home at some point and wonder if people will think that we went 'cheap' on the appliances or is Kenmore a pretty respected brand? I didn't realize that it was only made by Sears. Thanks for any feedback! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I wouldn't buy appliances based on resale. If a potential buyer hates your fridge, it's easy to get a new one. Get what you like, and what fits comfortably in your budget. |
That is a really good point, thank you |
Great deals are compelling, no question. Keep in mind how A&E ties into most large appliances sold by Sears. If Kenmore has a particular model not available elsewhere, like an induction range that you really want, go for it. "Respected brands" is a fluid situation these days. |
I agree with everyone else - buy the appliances YOU want.I just bought a Kenmore Elite FD SS fridge - mainly because it had all the features we wanted. Also bought the GE Profile induction range and a KA dishwasher in SS. I don't think appliances would make or break a deal on a house sale. |
- Posted by octoberdana (My Page) on Tue, Apr 30, 13 at 18:46
We just bought a SS side by side Kenmore elite refrigerator and it's made by Kitchen Aid. It was a lot less expensive then the Kitchen Aid but had the same freezer. It has great reviews by JD Powers and Consumer Reports. I would go for something that is going to perform well that I can enjoy while living in my home rather than trying to guess what someone else may like. |
We want to sell our home at some point and wonder if people will think that we went 'cheap' on the appliances or is Kenmore a pretty respected brand? I didn't realize that it was only made by Sears.Sears doesn't make anything. All Sears products are just a brand label. Kenmore appliances are sourced from the various manufacturers that produce all the other brands. A Kenmore-branded washing machine may be manufactured by Whirlpool, LG, Samsung, Electrolux/Frigidaire or GE for example. Some dishwashers are Whirlpool, some are Bosch, some may be Frigidaire. The first three digits (before the period) on the FULL model number of an appliance (NOT the catalog or store number) indicates the manufacturer source. There are web sites that translate the numbers accordingly. Search for "kenmore manufacturing codes." |

Bible in Basic English (BBE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 And Moses, answering, said, It is certain that they will not have faith in me or give ear to my voice; for they will say, You have not seen the Lord. | 1 Moses answered, "What if they do not believe me or listen to me and say, 'The LORD did not appear to you'?" |
2 And the Lord said to him, What is that in your hand? And he said, A rod. | 2 Then the LORD said to him, "What is that in your hand?" "A staff," he replied. |
3 And he said, Put it down on the earth. And he put it down on the earth and it became a snake; and Moses went running from it. | 3 The LORD said, "Throw it on the ground." Moses threw it on the ground and it became a snake, and he ran from it. |
4 And the Lord said to Moses, Put out your hand and take it by the tail: (and he put out his hand and took a grip of it and it became a rod in his hand:) | 4 Then the LORD said to him, "Reach out your hand and take it by the tail." So Moses reached out and took hold of the snake and it turned back into a staff in his hand. |
5 So that they may be certain that the Lord, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has been seen by you. | 5 "This," said the LORD, "is so that they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob--has appeared to you." |
6 Then the Lord said to him again, Put your hand inside your clothing. And he put his hand inside his robe: and when he took it out it was like the hand of a leper, as white as snow. | 6 Then the LORD said, "Put your hand inside your cloak." So Moses put his hand into his cloak, and when he took it out, it was leprous, like snow. |
7 And he said, Put your hand inside your robe again. (And he put his hand into his robe again, and when he took it out he saw that it had become like his other flesh.) | 7 "Now put it back into your cloak," he said. So Moses put his hand back into his cloak, and when he took it out, it was restored, like the rest of his flesh. |
8 And if they do not have faith in you or give ear to the voice of the first sign, they will have faith in the second sign. | 8 Then the LORD said, "If they do not believe you or pay attention to the first miraculous sign, they may believe the second. |
9 And if they have no faith even in these two signs and will not give ear to your voice, then you are to take the water of the Nile and put it on the dry land: and the water you take out of the river will become blood on the dry land. | 9 But if they do not believe these two signs or listen to you, take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground. The water you take from the river will become blood on the ground." |
10 And Moses said to the Lord, O Lord, I am not a man of words; I have never been so, and am not now, even after what you have said to your servant: for talking is hard for me, and I am slow of tongue. | 10 Moses said to the LORD, "O Lord, I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue." |
11 And the Lord said to him, Who has made man's mouth? who takes away a man's voice or hearing, or makes him seeing or blind? Is it not I, the Lord? | 11 The LORD said to him, "Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the LORD? |
12 So go now, and I will be with your mouth, teaching you what to say. | 12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say." |
13 And he said, O Lord, send, if you will, by the hand of anyone whom it seems good to you to send. | 13 But Moses said, "O Lord, please send someone else to do it." |
14 And the Lord was angry with Moses, and said, Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? To my knowledge he is good at talking. And now he is coming out to you: and when he sees you he will be glad in his heart. | 14 Then the LORD's anger burned against Moses and he said, "What about your brother, Aaron the Levite? I know he can speak well. He is already on his way to meet you, and his heart will be glad when he sees you. |
15 Let him give ear to your voice, and you will put my words in his mouth; and I will be with your mouth and with his, teaching you what you have to do. | 15 You shall speak to him and put words in his mouth; I will help both of you speak and will teach you what to do. |
16 And he will do the talking for you to the people: he will be to you as a mouth and you will be to him as God. | 16 He will speak to the people for you, and it will be as if he were your mouth and as if you were God to him. |
17 And take in your hand this rod with which you will do the signs. | 17 But take this staff in your hand so you can perform miraculous signs with it." |
18 And Moses went back to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go back now to my relations in Egypt and see if they are still living. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace. | 18 Then Moses went back to Jethro his father-in-law and said to him, "Let me go back to my own people in Egypt to see if any of them are still alive." Jethro said, "Go, and I wish you well." |
19 And the Lord said to Moses in Midian, Go back to Egypt, for all the men are dead who were attempting to take your life. | 19 Now the LORD had said to Moses in Midian, "Go back to Egypt, for all the men who wanted to kill you are dead." |
20 And Moses took his wife and his sons and put them on an ass and went back to the land of Egypt: and he took the rod of God in his hand. | 20 So Moses took his wife and sons, put them on a donkey and started back to Egypt. And he took the staff of God in his hand. |
21 And the Lord said to Moses, When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have given you power to do: but I will make his heart hard and he will not let the people go. | 21 The LORD said to Moses, "When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. |
22 And you are to say to Pharaoh, The Lord says, Israel is the first of my sons: | 22 Then say to Pharaoh, 'This is what the LORD says: Israel is my firstborn son, |
23 And I said to you, Let my son go, so that he may give me worship; and you did not let him go: so now I will put the first of your sons to death. | 23 and I told you, "Let my son go, so he may worship me." But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.' " |
24 Now on the journey, at the night's resting-place, the Lord came in his way and would have put him to death. | 24 At a lodging place on the way, the LORD met [Moses] and was about to kill him. |
25 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cutting off the skin of her son's private parts, and touching his feet with it, she said, Truly you are a husband of blood to me. | 25 But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son's foreskin and touched [Moses'] feet with it. "Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me," she said. |
26 So he let him go. Then she said, You are a husband of blood because of the circumcision. | 26 So the LORD let him alone. (At that time she said "bridegroom of blood," referring to circumcision.) |
27 And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the waste land and you will see Moses. So he went and came across Moses at the mountain of God, and gave him a kiss. | 27 The LORD said to Aaron, "Go into the desert to meet Moses." So he met Moses at the mountain of God and kissed him. |
28 And Moses gave Aaron an account of all the words of the Lord which he had sent him to say, and of all the signs which he had given him orders to do. | 28 Then Moses told Aaron everything the LORD had sent him to say, and also about all the miraculous signs he had commanded him to perform. |
29 Then Moses and Aaron went and got together all the chiefs of the children of Israel: | 29 Moses and Aaron brought together all the elders of the Israelites, |
30 And Aaron said to them all the words the Lord had said to Moses, and did the signs before all the people. | 30 and Aaron told them everything the LORD had said to Moses. He also performed the signs before the people, |
31 And the people had faith in them; and hearing that the Lord had taken up the cause of the children of Israel and had seen their troubles, with bent heads they gave him worship. | 31 and they believed. And when they heard that the LORD was concerned about them and had seen their misery, they bowed down and worshiped. |
